| Bryston's BP-26 vs 17 cubed Would anyone be kind enough to tell me what "cubed" really stands for? | |
| Is it a good idea to buy CD players over 10 years old even it is a reliable brand? I would not buy a 10 year old player, even if its moving parts are still available as of today you have no guarantee that they will still be available a couple of years from now. | |
| Where can I demo JBL speakers? Try Audio Video Logic in Iowa, they have a good selection of current JBL speakers. | |
| Yamaha SACD players Thanks for your reply, I am seriously considering ordering S1000, 33 lbs wow that is pretty heavy load, do you remember how well the player was packaged for shipping?As for SACD sound quality I agree with you, some are exceptional and some are not... | |
| having 2 Mcintosh MC2200 Amps and 1 Mac C-27 "I have the MC2255 McIntosh amplifier. The MC2200 is the same amp, without the power." The MC2200 is not the same amp as MC2255, it is in fact the meter-less version of earlier MC2205 amp. | |
| New McIntosh 462 amplifier - If I were looking to buy a new amp today my first requirement would be the weight, anything over 65 pounds thanks but no thanks, and yes I am McIntosh guy all the way but I had enough of these back breaking components. | |
| MAC Autoformers? I am going all out to prove my ignorance and ask a question on autoformers. I suppose we all agree that one advantage of autoformers is to deliver the same amount of power regardless of variations in a given speaker impedance curve. So here is ... | |
| MAC Autoformers? "I have been looking at integrated amps and when researching the Mac I noticed the only ones without auotformers are the lowest rated at 100w. I wonder why that would be the case are they not needed in the low watt amps? I assume they could use th... | |
| MAC Autoformers? The only negative with Mac autoformers is in doubling the amplifier cost and weight. | |
| insurance and shipping with UPS “thousands” Really? Ok, that was an exaggeration on my part, and no I am not a dealer, perhaps I should have used the word “countless” instead. I am a Mac owner, have been for at least 45 years and I do participate in various Mac forums, that is... | |
| insurance and shipping with UPS Of all amplifiers destroyed by UPS one stands out, its Macintosh, with their glass fronts I have seen thousands of shattered Mac amplifiers many were boxed with Mac's own dual boxes fastened to plywood bases to prevent any movement.UPS has mastere... | |
| Bass Amps. JBL 4350 My suggestion was to turn off the amp that powers the upper end and listen to speaker producing frequencies under 250Hz, or the dual 15" woofers, 2235's. | |
| McIntosh MC152 vs MC162 MC162 is an older amp, it does not have autformers, lightweight, at half the weight of MC152.MC152 is a current amp with autoformers, it is rated at 150W per channel but will deliver 200W. The new price is $4500, used ones, B rated, at Audio class... | |
| Bass Amps. JBL 4350 My take is that amp quality makes a difference, an audible difference, for the upper end where the low and high mid range reside (the 2" compression driver and the 12" lower midrange cone driver), again, in my opinion amp quality is not audible at... | |
| Bass Amps. JBL 4350 I have a DIY JBL-4350, mine are in a 6000 cu. ft music room with acoustical treatment on walls.I am primarily into classical and some jazz.Mine are powered with a pair of McIntosh MC2205's, these are 200W amplifiers. I normally listen with fairly ... |
